Best read as a series -- Student's story 1: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/doukyuusei_nakamura_asumiko/ Student's story 2: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sotsugyousei/ Teacher's story (the best!) 3: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sora_to_hara/

Sweet development, and much better read a series. I prefer the professor's story, but these two are useful for context. This is a nice read. Part 1: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/doukyuusei_nakamura_asumiko/ Professor's story: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/sora_to_hara/ Part 4: http://www.mangago.me/read-manga/occupation_to_beloved/

It could have been a disturbing story due to the ages of the characters, but it develops so respectfully and openly that I had to love it. I especially love the moment of honesty with the family and the loving support between her father and his adopted sibling.

The mirrored/inverted relationships between the siblings in this story amuse me. It's very convenient, but also sweet. Having lived with my head in the clouds my whole life, I'm partial to stories where absent-minded mistakes are considered an appealing aspect of the main character. I also love stories where the characters take care of each other, whether friends or lovers. All in all, worth re-reading both for the amusing moments and characters.

I absolutely love the friendship between the fathers and how the author showed their different thoughts. It really shows how they must learn to communicate and be honest to get closer to each other. And, let's face it, those guys are both wonderful fathers. The boys are adorable! The whole story frames what it means to be "family" in a beautiful way.

Communication is a powerful theme for me, and the fact that she loses the ability to speak highlights this element in a meaningful way. Beautiful, sweet story.

A girl who has accepted the cage her family placed her in meets a boy who understands how to live free. He teaches her to stand up for herself, and she teaches him how to open his heart and trust again. Together, they struggle through every challenge toward their dream. Beautiful story!

Another almost-creepy story premise that plays out beautifully and respectfully over time. Bonus: Also full of amusing characters aside from the primary couple.

M's recommendation. Very good!
